Reify pull requests by making them a ref in the repository (BB-7014)

In Github, pull requests sent to repo can be accessed via refs/pull/123/...
This enables things like Travis CI to work.
I'd like the pull request be reified here, as well, so I can access it from git itself.
Also, allow to list pull requests (possibly with filtering for open ones only), but there is #3442 for this.

+1 What do you wait for this feature? Sorry, but I work on a Continuous Integration Server, and this feature is missing :/ And currently, I can't support Bitbucket just because of that. I don't have the problem with GitHub.

How are we supposed to test a PR before merging it? The only way I've found to get around this is getting READ access to the person who is submitting the PR's repo and then adding it as a remote. At the very least the maintainer of a project should be automatically be granted READ access to the forked repo so maintainers don't have to ask for READ access.
